Top Palermo Historical Center Hotel Reviews

La Terrazza Sul Centro

10/10 Excellent

"I didn’t mind all of the stairs but people who have difficulties with stairs might not want to stay here. I enjoyed the terrace with views of the old town plus a good place to relax. The breakfast was very good, the woman taking care of everything was so sweet."

NH Collection Palermo Palazzo Sitano

8/10 Good

"The ground floor lounge spaces and its bar always seemed deserted, and there is a strong smell of Ortigia room scents throughout. The heavy-handed interior design overwhelms the more classic beauty of the original palazzi. We are architects, so this kind of poor design is more offensive to us than most. We finally got help with the AC, which had been turned off in our first room, and the young men "helping" us turn it back on were surly and laughing at our apparent stupidity in not being able to find the tiny black button on the tiny black thermostat. So, several hot and uncomfortable nights spent before solving that mystery. It's a great location with good array of breakfast choices, but I would not go back here."

Spasimo Hôtellerie

8/10 Good

"The staff was very helpful. The room was clean but not pristine. I mean you see discoloration on the shower grout. There was also a stench coming from the shower drain. It wasn’t that bad but it was there. There was also odor in the gym, not sure if it was coming from the toilette. Overall if they sanitize the place and do deep cleaning they will be in good shape. The staff was very friendly otherwise."

Eurostars Centrale Palace

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. A classic, old palazzo, beautifully restored, right in the center of Palermo. Very clean, very comfortable, good sized rooms, quiet air conditioning, and fantastic views from the rooftop restaurant and bar. Be sure to have a drink in the bar with Robert, a true professional with an engaging personality with amazing stories to tell Very highly recommended"

B&B Hotel Palermo Quattro Canti

8/10 Good

"This hotel is fine. It wasn’t as nice as in the pictures but honestly if you’re going to be there just for sleeping it’s perfect. It has everything you need and the staff is great. If you’re looking for a fancy hotel I would say pick something else but something easy conveniently located and average it’s perfect. Especially for the price."
